    • Added the methods: IntlDateFormatter::formatObject(), IntlDateFormatter::getCalendarObject(), IntlDateFormatter::getTimeZone(), IntlDateFormatter::setTimeZone()
    • Added the functions: datefmt_format_object(), datefmt_get_calendar_object(), datefmt_get_timezone(), datefmt_set_timezone(), datefmt_get_calendar_object(), intlcal_create_instance()

    • break/continue $var syntax.
    • Safe mode and all related ini options.
    • register_globals and register_long_arrays ini options.
    • import_request_variables().
    • allow_call_time_pass_reference.
    • define_syslog_variables ini option and its associated function.
    • highlight.bg ini option.
    • Session bug compatibility mode (session.bug_compat_42 and session.bug_compat_warn ini options).
    • session_is_registered(), session_register() and session_unregister() functions.
    • y2k_compliance ini option.
    • magic_quotes_gpc, magic_quotes_runtime and magic_quotes_sybase ini options. get_magic_quotes_gpc, get_magic_quotes_runtime are kept but always return false, set_magic_quotes_runtime raises an E_CORE_ERROR.
    • Removed support for putenv("TZ=..") for setting the timezone.
    • Removed the timezone guessing algorithm in case the timezone isn't set with date.timezone or date_default_timezone_set(). Instead of a guessed timezone, "UTC" is now used instead.
  • Moved extensions to PECL
    • ext/sqlite. (Note: the ext/sqlite3 and ext/pdo_sqlite extensions are not affected)
  • General improvements
    • Added short array syntax support ([1,2,3]), see UPGRADING guide for full details.
    • Added binary numbers format (0b001010).
    • Added support for Class::{expr}() syntax.
    • Added multibyte support by default. Previously php had to be compiled with --enable-zend-multibyte. Now it can be enabled or disabled through zend.multibyte directive in php.ini.
    • Removed compile time dependency from ext/mbstring.
    • Added support for Traits.
    • Added closure $this support back.
    • Added array dereferencing support.
    • Added callable typehint.
    • Added indirect method call through array. #47160.

    • <?= is now always available regardless of the short_open_tag setting.
    • Implemented Zend Signal Handling (configurable option --enable-zend-signals, off by default).
    • Improved output layer, see README.NEW-OUTPUT-API for internals.
    • Improved unix build system to allow building multiple PHP binary SAPIs and one SAPI module the same time. #53271, #52419.
    • Implemented closure rebinding as parameter to bindTo.
    • Improved the warning message of incompatible arguments.
    • Improved ternary operator performance when returning arrays.
    • Changed error handlers to only generate docref links when the docref_root INI setting is not empty.

    • Changed default value of "default_charset" php.ini option from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8.
    • Changed silent casting of null/''/false into an Object when adding a property into a warning.
    • Changed E_ALL to include E_STRICT.
    • Disabled windows CRT warning by default, can be enabled again using the ini directive windows_show_crt_warnings.

    • Improved parse error messages.
    • Replaced zend_function.pass_rest_by_reference by ZEND_ACC_PASS_REST_BY_REFERENCE in zend_function.fn_flags.
    • Replaced zend_function.return_reference by ZEND_ACC_RETURN_REFERENCE in zend_function.fn_flags.
    • Removed zend_arg_info.required_num_args as it was only needed for internal functions. Now the first arg_info for internal functions (which has special meaning) is represented by zend_internal_function_info structure.
    • Moved zend_op_array.size, size_var, size_literal, current_brk_cont, backpatch_count into CG(context) as they are used only during compilation.
    • Moved zend_op_array.start_op into EG(start_op) as it's used only for 'interactive' execution of single top-level op-array.
    • Replaced zend_op_array.done_pass_two by ZEND_ACC_DONE_PASS_TWO in zend_op_array.fn_flags.
    • op_array.vars array is trimmed (reallocated) during pass_two.
    • Replaced zend_class_entry.constants_updated by ZEND_ACC_CONSTANTS_UPDATED in zend_class_entry.ce_flags.
    • Reduced the size of zend_class_entry by sharing the same memory space by different information for internal and user classes. See zend_class_entry.info union.
    • Reduced size of temp_variable.
  • Improved Zend Engine, performance tweaks and optimizations
    • Inlined most probable code-paths for arithmetic operations directly into executor.
    • Eliminated unnecessary iterations during request startup/shutdown.
    • Changed $GLOBALS into a JIT autoglobal, so it's initialized only if used. (this may affect opcode caches!)
    • Improved performance of @ (silence) operator.
    • Simplified string offset reading. $str[1][0] is now a legal construct.
    • Added caches to eliminate repeatable run-time bindings of functions, classes, constants, methods and properties.
    • Added concept of interned strings. All strings constants known at compile time are allocated in a single copy and never changed.
